[ANN][EAC] EarthCoin *SEEKING NEW EXCHANGES - HUGE VOLUMES BEING MISSED!

[itf991]

So its been a little while since I've posted. For anyone that might remember I was working on the Android Wallet for Earthcoin. I've been silent for a while now, not because I had stopped working or forgot about earthcoin but because I had no positive news to report. Well, I finally have some news I wanted to share

While I had managed to create the DigiByte wallet Earthcoin has remained elusive even though a large portion of my time was spent on it. While I wouldn't call making the DigiByte wallet easy per say, it was much easier then the Earthcoin wallet.

As some might know the Earthcoin code implements the transaction comment field which complicated things significantly. The serialization had to be updated to handle the new field and with the help of HashEngineering it seems we've finally done just that.

There are still some bugs to work out but transactions are working in both directions

There is still an issue with saving the blockchain state to the wallet which is  caused by the change in serialization but this is a huge step forward.

I'll keep everyone posted as we iron out the last problems. 

A little sneak peak below.

ios or android?

Good stuff!

I personally expect a pop around 4.5 billion coins created in lock step with EVERY SINGLE OTHER crypto that has ever launched.  Not a mystery my friend.

o.O

Could you elaborate on that? So every single coin will see a sudden rise when EAC is around 4.5 billion? Why does it apply to all coins and its link to EAC?

What would you estimate EAC's market cap to be at like 5 billion coins and maybe 1 billion coins after first year halving (7-8 billion coins?)

Looks similar, isn't it. Its a 100% clone, like the Qt wallet, probably a few hours of work.
I expected a little more than that. Something unique, after 1 month of development.

By the way, the wallet seems good, but it takes more than that to be the flagship alt.

Skipping the fact that even to clone an Android wallet from bitcoinj requires a large amount of knowledge in many different areas (c++, java, bitcoin protocol,etc) if it were 100% clone it would have been done long long ago as shown by the DigiByte wallet I've completed.  

While the UI might look the same at the moment in the sneak peek that was posted there were backend changes required to adapt to the transaction comment field. When I went into this project, I like you assumed it wouldn't be overly difficult and should only take a few hours to get it functioning. Punch in the genesis block info, pubkey, packetmagic all that good stuff and bam, android wallet. That however was not the case and I wasn't willing to give up when it started to get more difficult.

The serialization in bitcoinj, for lack of a better description is complicated. Its passed back and forth between different java streams and each stream had to be updated to handle the correct serialization. The protobuf libraries from google are part of the chain and is directly what has caused the majority of the time in development. I had never worked with protbufs before and going in I had only a vague idea of what a protobuf even was.

The amount of time I spent researching and then trying to implement the new serialization would have made most sane people quit. I'm sure there are others who could have managed it quicker then me but anyone who possesses the capabilities are surely already busy with their own projects. I had to learn the bitcoin specific info as I went,  a few months ago I barely even knew what a bitcoin was let alone have detailed knowledge of the protocol. HashEngineering's help was also invaluable as he helped get me back on track a few times when I was getting stuck.  

When its released it will support the Transaction Comment which you will be able to set in the send coins screen, something that no other Android wallet has. I am also going to update the color scheme and will have another little surprise when its released.

This is also an ongoing project. I don't plan on dropping an apk and disappearing. Updates will be made in both UI and functionality improvements. I had always planned on getting it functioning and then working on customizing and improving. Making it function has just been more work then I originally anticipated.

Any suggestions for future improvements would be greatly appreciated!

Good Work Devs!  Continue to show up the FUD spreaders.

Your hard work will speak for itself.

The community sees you and appreciates you.

Please continue to post to this thread with updates even if they are small.

Keep up the good work and fight!

BUYING MORE EAC NOW!   

[Ait]

Looking good xploited! 

Some people are just so clever. 

[lucoia]

Ok, it's almost time to buy shitload of cheap EAC again to sell at x2.5 price during x5 day

Android

Can you share your wallet or cryptsy trade key so I can send you some Earthcoins as a bonus for your hard work? Thank you for the update as well, talented people such as yourself are what makes this community great.

You betcha!    ebrPC5c1RddyCrWUg1q8EbAMcsnT5znyTq

I should have more news later this evening as I work on wrinkling out the last few bugs. Theres some customization I'm going to make before official release on the play store but I'll get it into some testers hands as soon as the blockchain remains synced

Just sent you a reward for your efforts! Thanks for the hard work and I can't wait to see the finished product!

Which pool?  So many choices!

[WesandEAC]

Hey!  Just an opinion of mine that no one likes to be reminded of.  There is only one way that a coin grows in value and that is simply a function of time.  The lifespan of the creation of the money supply is finite unlike inflationary currencies.  As this lifespan approaches key milestones like 25%, 33%, 50%, 66% with respect to the timing of its halfings, having to recalibrate the creation of value by increasing its price, you will naturally see price rises.  That is it - deflationary currencies are a function of time lessened or lengthened due to the growth rate of the base of acceptance.

No Android wallet, or graphic of strategic partner will do much to affect this accept to spread the base out which will caused more pronounced effects during these periods.  DOGE was a perfect example as it hit the 33% mark with its wide adoption.

Anyway just an opinion but I like to let time work for me not tell time how I feel things should be done.
Thats all.

really nice work xploited, waiting eagerly to download it

The chain syncing issue has been resolved. It was actually really silly and was only something I would have experienced.

When I test an app I uninstall the app before if there was a previous version by dragging the icon to the trash bin. For whatever reason when I uninstalled the app to test the latest version it never deleted the blockchain or wallet data. Once I went to settings, uninstalled from there and re-installed the issue I was experiencing went away.

I'll be up for a little while yet so I could use a tester or two just to confirm its working correct, I don't want to start on the other areas until its confirmed working!

As promised:

The minebig pools can use some support!

http://eac.minebig.com

where is all the community love?

It seems that the community forgot that your pool is about mining and giving to charity at one go.

*edit
I just started mining at your pool. I'll do that till sunday evening and will switch them off after. The earnings i'll donate to the feed the kids project. But i'd like to know which wallet I need to put into my account for that 

Btw, it would be nice if more would do what I did and started mining for a few days to help charity. So feel free to join in!

Because a block was found yesterday, I am now able to donate: 4,620.27231520 to Mining for food

when pump ?

[epinay]

when pump ?

Today

[heartthew]

when pump ?

Today

Don't mean to be a pain, but wouldn't we want to AVOID asking about pumps on the main thread, since it isn't supposed to be a pump and dump coin?

[avw1982]

Testing the app. Can tell you all that It works great. 

[slyA]

when pump ?

There is no pump coming in the near future. Well except maybe during 5x payout. For now I suggest you trade your EAC for some rising coins like dark coin and make some profit then buy back later when peopl realise EAC is not a non-profit crypto.

I have tried to do things like this and it can work out for you, but sometimes it cannot.... i find usually with the time it takes for coins value to rise is extremely short that you need to be pretty lucky, and watching the market non stop to get in near bottom.  Maybe i am just not good at seeing trends, so ill stick to buying what I want and holding, and trying to find the most low network hash, high potential coin and mine it.  I have lost to much from trying to trade to make a small bit of a profit.... lol. Its to stressful and disappointing for me to try n buy in the dips and selling when it pops back up :p
